Topics include:

- The zero carbon balance,
- The zero carbon transition plan,
- Embodied carbon,
- Thermal Energy Demand Intensity (TEDI),
- Energy use Intensity (EUI),

Participants will have the opportunity to participate in a live Q&A and interactive activities to reinforce the course material.
